Re: [cobirds] Northeast Reservoirs yesterday

[Rachel Kolokoff Hopper]

I reported these Snow Goose deaths to CPW yesterday. They were sending people out to both reservoirs. If it is bird flu, the eagles would certainly be at risk.

It would seem that they would’ve been able to flyway it any given time before freezing to death. The reason I ask is because I had a goose die on my pond that had symptoms that looked neurological in origin and I was concerned that it was avian flu.       I talked to someone at the avian flu hotline number at CSU and they mentioned that raptors were the second most likely type of bird to get the disease. This made me concerned for the bald eagles in my area, as well as the ones at the Prewitt Reservoir.      Thoughts?

There were over 30 SNGO dead frozen into the ice which the 67 Bald Eagles were feasting on. Prewitt Reservoir had a decent amount of open water with large numbers of white geese, MALL, and white-cheeked geese with little else. Well over 100 dead white geese dead on the shore and in the ice. My only guess as to why would be bird flu. Jackson Reservoir completely frozen with mosly white-cheeked geese and little else.
